That's what I was going to say. She looks like any little girl in the South that you'd come across at a 3-star hotel on the weekend. It's seriously creepy and not my cup of tea, but pageant moms probably think the same of me, a soccer mom.
My sister did pageants when we were kids and loved it. When she wasn't doing a pageant, she played pageant and used to bribe me with candy to let her do makeovers on me. I wasn't allowed candy because I was a chubster and oddly enough, backstage at most pageants was like a Dylan's Candy Bar. Just a sea of free sugar to get the girls hyped up and totally wired.
